Background The new World Health Organization (WHO) classification of gastric cancer includes a histological subtype of poorly cohesive carcinoma (PCC), which includes signet-ring cell (SRC) phenotype. We aimed to examine the concordance between preoperative clinical and postoperative histological diagnoses according to the 2010 WHO histological subtypes and to compare the prognoses of these subtypes. Methods The study cohort comprised 665 patients who underwent gastrectomy from 2005 to 2019. Histological subtypes were classified into PCC-NOS (non-signet ring cell subtype), SRC, and non-PCC, which were defined by the predominant component in accordance with the 2010 WHO classification of gastric cancer. The concordance of clinical and pathological diagnosis was examined and clinicopathological characteristics and survival outcome of the three subtypes compared. Results The cancers of 443 patients (66.7%) were classified as non-PCC, of 112 patients (16.8%) as PCC-NOS, and of 110 patients (16.5%) as SRC predominant subtypes. Significant differences in sex, age, tumor location, size, macroscopic type, and pathological TNM category (all P
